go-crypto-winnative
The cng package implements Go crypto primitives on Windows using CNG. When configured correctly, CNG can be executed in FIPS mode.
The cng package is designed to be used as a drop-in replacement for the boring package in order to facilitate integrating cng inside a forked Go toolchain.
Visit the FIPS documentation in the microsoft/go repository for more information about FIPS, enabling FIPS mode, and writing a FIPS compliant Go application.
Disclaimer
A program directly or indirectly using this package in FIPS mode can claim it is using a FIPS-certified cryptographic module (CNG), but it can't claim the program as a whole is FIPS certified without passing the certification process, nor claim it is FIPS compliant without ensuring all crypto APIs and workflows are implemented in a FIPS-compliant manner.
